Mentioned as a watch for 2/20 at .43 this stock ran an amazing 167% in 4 days with a MAJOR volume move.As stated in an earlier post today:"I've also stated how so many stocks BEGIN their career as a big time stock from these sq/vol/breaks."This is one we might look back on 2 months from now and say, wow, it broke out at .64 on 2/20 and look at it now.Or maybe it'll go right down the drain as a few of them do, but it'll be interesting to watch.And that for me is what keeps this fun, you just never know

I've been preaching about BB squeeze/volume increase/price breakouts (aka sq/vol/br) for years and how they can give awesome opportunities for long/swing/day trades.I've posted filters to find them and from time to time post lists I'm watching and how if you are interested as I am in momo stocks, how important these lists are to journal.I've also stated how so many stocks BEGIN their career as a big time stock from these sq/vol/breaks.A few recent examples, look at MSI 11/15 at .97, JADE 1/12 at 5.65, CYTR 1/19 at 2.08 and ROHI 11/2 at 1.65 (look at that vol increase from 118k to over 4 million).Believe it or not there are bunches of them just like that every month.

Anyway,over the last year I've searched to find blogs that trade similar to how I do and have found only a couple that were even close.But now I've stumbled across a blog that trades and believes in almost exactly the same methods I do.So if you are interested in this type of trading do yourself a favor and checkout Stockbee.I've added a link over to the right.

This fellow does an incredible amount of work keeping this blog updated every day.My hat's off to him ........ A recent excerpt:

At any given time there are handful of stocks which make a fast and furious move in a compressed time frame.You can look at the move in a day, week,month, quarter, six month, and a year. Now if you know 20 stocks were up more than 50% in month that is a very valuable information. Similarly if you know 96 stocks were up 200% or more in 260 days, it gives you a clear idea about the kind of potential possible in the market.

If you are a day trader potentially if you get in to the best moves in a day, the rewards can be astronomical. Similarly for a swing trader the advantage of finding such moves is low risk entry and best utilisation of the capital. Same concept applies to long term traders.

The dishes with the paw print are yours and contain your food. The other dishes are mine and contain my food. Please note, placing a paw print in the middle of my food does not stake a claim for it becoming your food and dish, nor do I find that aesthetically pleasing in the slightest.

The stairway was not designed by NASCAR and is not a racetrack. Beating me to the bottom is not the object. Tripping me doesn't help, since I fall faster than you can run.

I cannot buy anything bigger than a king-sized bed.I am truly sorry about this. Do not think I will continue sleeping on the couch to ensure your comfort. Dogs and cats can actually curl up in a ball when they sleep. It is not necessary to sleep perpendicularly to each other, stretched out to the fullest extent possible. I also know that sticking tails straight out and having tongues hanging out the other end to maximize space is nothing but sarcasm.

For the last time, there is not a secret exit from the bathroom. If by some miracle I beat you there and manage to get the door shut, it is not necessary to claw, whine, meow, try to turn the knob, or get your paw under the edge and try to pull the door open. I must exit through the same door I entered. I have been using the bathroom for years -- canine or feline attendance is not mandatory.

The proper order is kiss me and THEN go smell the other dog or cat's butt. I cannot stress this enough!

To pacify you, my dear pets, I have posted the following message on our front door:

Rules for Non-Pet Owners Who Visit and Like to Complain About Our Pets:

1. They live here. You don't.

2. If you don't want hair on your clothes, stay off the furniture. (That's why they call it "fur"niture .)

3. I like my pets a lot better than I like most people.

4. To you, it's an animal. To me, he/she is an adopted son/daughter who is short, hairy, walks on all fours, and does not speak clearly.

Remember:

Why dogs & cats are better than kids because: they eat less, don't ask for money all the time, are easier to train, usually come when called, never drive your car, don't hang out with drug-using friends, don't smoke or drink, don't worry about having to buy the latest fashions, don't wear your clothes, don't need a gazillion dollars for college, and if they get pregnant, you can sell their children.

On Muddy's Dayranger List. Shew, what a range. And beaten down big over the last day or two. Geez, the POS probably deserves it, but who cares. Trade it for today and move on.

Notice the volume spikes before the 10/60 cross on green candles. Then the 10/60 cross. Then another big green candle with volume. ALSO, crossing the even dollar mark at $7, which as you know, Muddy loves.

If you weren't watching before the cross, it was a beautiful buy signal at $7 after the cross. Closed at $7.85.

In the past few months, a few of my colleagues have approached me about joining an MLM travel network, YTB Travel. YTBL came up on one of my low RSI filters today so I did a little homework - read more about it here.

This blog exists so that Muddy doesn't have to repeatedly answer the same questions from new readers and chat room members.

Muddy outlines how he screens, selects, and plays stocks. You won't find daily posts on the market. We don't care if the markets are green or red, nor do we post general market commentary. As Loki said in the chat room, "No matter the shade, cash to be made".
